Just wanted to update everyone on the schedule for the family reunion. Gina volunteered to be in charge of the Saturday activities, so if you have any suggestions etc. please contact her and let her know. I'm sure she would love any suggestions or help in pulling things together so please offer your help and/or suggestions as soon as possible. If you don't volunteer anything you will have forfeited your rights to complain or criticize and you will probably get an assignment that you may or may not like. Saturday night is the 4th of July and I assume most people will want to see the fireworks. There are several places to see them and I will check into them all and decide what works best. I think there is a display there in Trinidad, but with money tight I'm not sure what will happen. Last year the big Eureka one almost got cancelled, but was funded by a doner at the last minute. It was also pretty foggy last year and you couldn't see as well. That's the chances you take living or vacationing on the coast. Big Mike has also volunteered to put together a display of all the blessing gowns and shawls that Nanny has made for everyone, so he will be contacting you about that, but in conjunction with that (which we will do on Sunday) I would like to do an activity centered around geneology for Sunday. If anyone would like to volunteer to head that up I would really appreciate it. If you have any other suggestions for Sunday activities let me know. Please let me know right away if there are any problems with the cabin, RV, or tent assignments. I will be giving the people at Emerald Forest your name so that they will know who will be checking in to what cabin or site. I hope everyone is getting excited for the big event!
